Women’s Foil Leads the Way for Brown at Inaugural USCFS Championships

Feb 27, 2011

New York, N.Y. – The Brown women's foil team was crowned as champions at the inaugural United States Collegiate Fencing Squad (USCFS) Championships, which were hosted by New York University on Sunday, February 27, at the Coles Sports Center in Manhattan.

The University of Notre Dame women's sabre team and the Columbia University women's epee team also claimed victories.

"This was a fantastic result for our program," remarked head coach Atilio Tass. "Our entire team competed strongly against a very high level field of competition."

The Championships featured the USFA relay-scoring structure rather than the typical protocol of NCAA fencing competitions.
